I want my xp login to use firefox as my default browser, and for my other logins to use internet explorer as the default broswer.

How can I set this up? i tried "set program access and defaults," that didn't work.

well you set the default ones in each accounts, what ever you set as default in one acount will not show results in another account.
so for say:

user 1:
default is ie6

user 2:
defualt firefox

AFAIK, everyone gets the same Internet and Email settings - default for one is default for all.

yes i know, you guys also said that the resolution you set would always be teh same for all users, but i found a fix to that.

so im hoping someone else has a fix for this? damn XP, i know in iwndows 98 or me (:x) this probably would have worked :rolleyes:

That&#39;s interesting, how do you do that one? It&#39;s something I&#39;ve wanted to do for years&#33;

It&#39;s this program i found, you put it in the startup folder in your start menu then it just does it&#39;s job silently. Set the resoultion on yours, other ones stay same. Or set resolution on others, and yours stays same. works good.

I can&#39;t remember where i found it, but the program is called "Per User Display Settings", which is how i got teh idea for the name of this thread lol, i&#39;ll send you it on MSN if you want it.
